Update iPhone with straight talk program

Apple never will give users of prepaid phone programs the possibility to use the program to upgrade with their service.  If you make monthly payments for an unlocked phone, it is important if you have an account with one of the 4 major carriers.  Is there another way to be part of the program without the need to have an account with one of these 4 carriers?  Thank you very much for your answers.

I think that you can open an account with AT & T or Verizon, improve your iPhone through Apple with upgrade program, then later that day then cancel your account to any carrier free of charge. Unfortunately, I think it's the only way because Apple requires to be turned on with a major carrier, even if it is unlocked.

  • Problem updating iPhone with iTunes

    Connected an iPhone 4s to iTunes (12.1.3.6) upgrade to iOS 9.2.1.  Apparently iTunes does not check for available disk space on the PC before starting an update. The size of the download took me (and my PC) by surprise - 1.5 gigabytes. After a very long wait for download, my system disk (c :)) became practically abandoned lots and iTunes iPhone upgrade stage complaining about insufficient disk space to perform the update (after download).)

    Also, Windows became unstable due to the almost full C: drive. So I manually moved the file to update to 1.5 GB on another drive, and an additional cleaning left me with 3 GB free on C:.

    Return to the update of the iPhone. I assumed that it would be a way to point to the file moved to complete the update iTunes, but I found no way to do it. All I seem to be able to do is to repeat the full download that, for many reasons, I want to avoid.

    So can anyone tell how to upgrade the iPhone using the already downloaded update file?

    Pouvez be able to adapt the technique given here to redirect the path to the file to update for your location.

  • 7 Verizon iPhone is compatible with LTE of Verizon's Straight Talk network?

    The answer to this question may seem like it's obviously - almost tautological - Yes, but according to three on three Straight Talk representatives (who claim to be supervisors) and one on a representative of Apple, he is not necessarily the case.

    They all said there is no way of knowing without the IMEI of the phone, if it is compatible with the network of Verizon LTE/CDMA of Straight Talk.

    I told them that I do not understand how an iPhone Verizon 7 maybe couldn't work on Verizon's CDMA/LTE network, if I try to activate it with a Straight Talk Verizon-network sim card. None of these representatives could give me a clear answer. They said quite simply the only way to check is to give them the IMEI number.

    I said that I don't have the IMEI number, because I didn't buy the phone again, and my whole point on appeal is to see if I need to buy this phone, because I can't risk to buy it, only to find out that it is not compatible. In other words, I feel like I'm stuck in a Catch 22.

    Why don't I just buy and return it, if it's not compatible? Because I intend to use my line of credit $ 1000 Paypal to buy electronic gift cards to target online and use the gift cards to buy the iPhone, because I don't have $1000 cash. So if I go back to the phone, I'll be stuck with a value of $ 1,000 worth of e-gift cards not returnable (that I don't need), a $ 1,000 balance on my line of credit of Paypal and no iPhone 7 - not a situation I want to find me.

    (I would buy the phone directly with my Paypal credit line, but target didn't allow customers to pay with Paypal in-store, and I have to pay for the iPhone in store since I pre ordered for in-store pickup. I would have paid for the phone target, Best Buy, or the site of Apple, but so far, the only way to do, is to sign up with one of the four major carriers [that I don't want to do], or already have an account with one of the big four carriers [which I did not]. Meanwhile, the 'sim-free' [i.e., not tied to any carrier] iPhone 7 is not yet available at Apple, or someone else, with no word on when it will become available.)

    Between me and my girlfriend, we have a 6 s iPhone and iPhone 5 c, that run on the network of Verizon CDMA/LTE of Straight Talk, so I can't imagine that the iPhone 7 would not. However, even Apple's site is not clear on this issue, as https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT204039 shows that Straight Talk support LTE, http://www.apple.com/iphone/LTE/ shows that the Straight Talk support LTE on the iPhone 5 C / 5/6/6 s, but does not support LTE for the iPhone list 7.

    Straight Talk was told that even if the iPhone 7 does not end work with the Verizon CDMA/LTE of Straight Talk network, it should at least work with AT & T or T-Mobile network. However, AT & T and T-Mobile coverage *, where I live (as the Sprint of), so I really want to work with the Verizon network.

    Can anyone confirm that iPhone Verizon 7 will work with the network of Verizon CDMA/LTE of Straight Talk, or suggest how I can get around this tricky dilemma?

    I realized after posting the message above, it would have been better if I had written "CDMA iPhone 7" instead of "Verizon iPhone 7.

    It would have been clearer I wrote "of Straight Talk Verizon network' instead of 'network of Verizon's Straight Talk.

  • iPhone 5 s straight talk activation outside the us.

    Dear friends,

    I bought the iphone 5s Walmart on Straight Talk. then he brought in Bangladesh without activating it. now, I can't activate it. of course the straight talk is not available in Bangladesh. so, what are my options? I tried to activate it without sim. I can get to the home screen, but it does not accept sim cards. factory unlock information suggest that the phone is already unlocked. so I am confused.

    someone of you have similar problems? How can I activate this phone it takes local sim cards of Bangladesh?

    Thanks in advance.

    Hello neotanveer,

    Thank you for using communities of Apple Support.

    I see that you want to use a Straight Talk phone bought in the United States, while you are in Bangladesh. The phone you bought was probably locked to the carrier, Straight Talk. You will need to contact to unlock it, if possible. See the following article: How to unlock your iPhone for use with another carrier

    Best regards.

    Call forwarding is strictly a feature of the carrier has therefore nothing to do with Apple.  You must get straight talk to help you sort out why it doesn't work for you on this phone with their service.

    Greetings Dani56777,

    Thank you for using communities Support from Apple!

    I understand that you run Windows 10 and you must update iTunes to the latest version so that your iPhone will be recognized when connected. I do not know if you receive an error when you try to update iTunes or not.

    If you need information on how to update iTunes, please follow the instructions in the following link.

    Download the latest version of iTunes for Windows - Apple Support

    If you receive an error or alert, you can consider removing iTunes and all of its associated components and then reinstalling fresh iTunes on your computer. That would give you the latest version of iTunes. If you need execute this process, please follow the steps described in the following article.

    Remove iTunes Control Panel and its associated components

    Use the control panel to uninstall iTunes and software components in the following order:

    1. iTunes
    2. Apple Software Update
    3. Apple Mobile Device Support
    4. Hello
    5. Apple Application Support 32-bit
    6. Apple Application Support 64-bit

    On some systems, iTunes can install two versions of the Apple Application Support. What is expected. If both are present, do not forget to uninstall both versions.

    Do these elements in a different order, uninstall or uninstall only some of them. This could have unintended effects. After you uninstall a component, you may be asked to restart your computer. Wait to restart your computer until you finish remove all components.

    Remove and reinstall iTunes and software for Windows 7 and later versions - Apple Support components

    Have a great day!

  • I don't know how or when I get a new phone with the upgrade program! Help!

    I have the iPhone Upgrade Program. I signed up last year and I have a 6 s more. I want a 7 (I have later), but it wouldn't kill me if it does not work.

    This is my experience:

    0) I went to 2 stores in the last three days and called APPLE 1-800-MY - I wanted to make SURE I had all my ducks in a row - and EVERYONE told me that if I wanted to keep my (AT & T) unlimited data plan and get a new phone as quickly as possible, I should go online at midnight.

    (1) online at midnight. Update to hit her until the page appeared at 12:09.

    (2) I went through the certification process of my current iPhone with my series 4 and the last of IMEI.

    (3) selected model, ability and color

    (4) congratulations! You are eligible for an upgrade! Click here to get your phone! (WOOHOO!)

    (5) I got this page. http://i.imgur.com/6oc1Cgl.PNG

    (6) WHAT THE @# REAL! & *?

    (7) I tried the same on iPhone and iPad using Apple store, same result.

    (8) went to bed.

    (9) stood at 07:00 (Pacific) and tried again. Has gone through the same process...

    (10) this time I got THIS SCREEN (http://i.imgur.com/a9y3b5q.jpg). Am I able to order now? What has changed and why I don't have to wait for the 17th? 10A) I tried all stores in California, Nevada and Oregon. There are no. 7 anywhere more available on AT & T phones. Period.

    (11) seriously?

    (12) using the cat online rejects me on straight away - the chat window closes when I select I want to talk about ordering process. The button actually closes the chat window? No warning or message which chats are full/no cat hours/too busy? It closed just the window?

    (13) I called 1-800-MY-APPLE and he literally told me the importance, I am to Apple and then hangs up on me.

    (14) coffee.

    I honestly don't know what else I could have done and how could I possibly be more thorough. I'm still without an upgrade, and there is no direct path to a phone now except the purchase of a pure and simple. But I have another year on my existing phone because I was stupid enough to give Apple upgrade program!

    What are my options? I can't find documentation on this process anywhere!

    Close and restart IE or IE with no addons

    not better?

    IE - tools - manage Addons (for sure disable SSV2 if it is there, it is no longer necessary but Java always install
